About Us

Home / About Us

Rutherford County Humane Society

Rutherford County Humane Society has been working in Rutherford County since 1979 to enhance the lives of abandoned and mistreated animals. Our goal is to reduce the number of unwanted animals through our spay and neuter programs, volunteer foster homes, and successful adoptions. We are an independent organization that works in collaboration with other area animal advocacy groups. All of our efforts depend on our passionately compassion- ate volunteers and on financial support from the community. As always, we welcome your financial support which makes our work possible.

Unfortunately, because of limited funding, we do not have a centralized adoption center or office facility. Instead, all of our adoptable pets reside with dedicated foster parents in the local area. Our mailing address is PO Box 998, Rutherfordton, NC 28139.

Our website is always current, and you can contact us through the web. You will receive a prompt reply. We have adoptable pets posted on this site. If you live outside our area, arrangements can be made to have the pet transported to you. We also post on Petfinder.com, AdoptaPet.com. and Chewy.com
